ABOUT

MA AI ARTS inc, was founded in January of 2010 by Marek Kozlowski.

The purpose of the company was to share his knowledge and experience of Martial Art Jujitsu and also to provide Massage services. The following year, Marek opened the MA AI ARTS Jujitsu school and taught a wide range of classes to both children and adults.

In 2012 he expanded services offering Yoga classes.

In 2016, Marek named his school Long Life Studio to emphasize benefits of practice Jujitsu and Yoga.

JUJITSU

Jujitsu teaches you self defense, how to control your body / mind, and how to harness your internal power.

YOGA

The purpose of Yoga is to find physical, spiritual and mental harmony.

Jujitsu and Massage complement each other and have equivalents in Chinese philosophy which states that Jujitsu is Yang (strong component) and Massage is Yin (soft component). These two components are like two sides of the same coin. Combined they are the one piece, which is called Tao. The concept of Yang and Yin is fundamental to an understanding of Chinese philosophy and medicine.

Yang and Yin constantly interact, never existing in absolute stasis. Everything has both yang and yin aspects, although Yang or Yin elements may manifest more strongly in different objects or at different times.

Jujitsu is strong (Yang), but in the same time requires great sensitivity (Yin).

Massage requires great sensitivity (Yin), but sometimes has to use more obvious methods (Yang).

Yoga is another great way to achieve balance in our life. It also includes Yang and Yin resulting in components of Tao.

The art of Jujitsu, Yoga and Massage have a lot in common, and each share the same goal; to find balance in the mind and body.
